As the capital of Cambodia, Phnom Penh offers a lot of opportunities for expats thinking about moving there. With a growing economy and becoming more international, find accommodation can be difficult, but is not impossible. Expats moving to Phnom Penh also need to be prepared for the warm climate.

Living in Phnom Penh can be quite the adventure, but expats should make sure to be well prepared. A private healthcare insurance, for instance, is recommended due to the comparatively poor standards of local healthcare. In this article, we introduce you to healthcare, safety and transport in Phnom Penh.

As the capital of Cambodia, Phnom Penh offers the majority of expat jobs in the country, principally in tourism or teaching. Many of these can be found online or with job agents, but remember to get the necessary visa and work permit first!
